"Luz...Bij...I'm so happy I had you as big sisters. And I would say the same for Haze. You're the best little brother I could ask for" King screamed, sending the group flying into the Human Realm, where they all landed on the ground as it rained.
"NO!" Luz and Bijou exclaimed, sprinting up to the door. "King!"
They saw him for a few seconds before the door closed in front of them. Luz opened it, but there was no trace of the Boiling Isles. It was just a regular room. The others looked on, realizing they had no way home.
"No...!" Bijou began to cry, concealing her eyes with her hands as she lowered her knees to the ground. Luz said nothing as just rain and thunder could be heard. Gus and Jackie started crying as well.

At the Noceda house...
Camila was preparing in the kitchen while a tablet nearby displayed headlines about four children (2 boys and 2 girls) who were lost in a frog world. She was stirring a pot of stew while Vee waited for her to finish. The door knocked, and Camila carefully opened it. She gasped, covering her mouth, when she noticed her daughter and six friends standing in the downpour.
Luz gave her mother a faint grin. "Hey, Mom...I'm back..."
Camila hurried forwards to hug Luz. They both shed tears because they were overjoyed to be together again. But, at the same time, Luz was still dealing with the aftermath of what had transpired.

With Bijou...
Bijou was still running along the street to her house, with streetlights illuminating her path. After a period of running, she arrived at her house, which still appears the same as when she went for the Boiling Isles.
As she approached the door, she took a deep breath before pressing the doorbell.
Inside the house, Axel lay down on the living room floor. Susan and Florian were preparing dinner in the kitchen, and Quinton and Elle were arranging the table, when the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it," Elle replied.
She changed into her human disguise and dashed to answer it. Elle burst into the kitchen a few seconds later, her eyes wide.
"Guys, you might wanna see this," she remarked.
Susan, Florian, and Quinton exchanged bewildered looks before the man moved to the door. When Florian answered the door, he was faced with the sorrowful face of their daughter and firstborn child, dressed differently and covered in scars and bruises.
"Hey, Dad..." she said, her voice faltering.
Florian drew her into an embrace, delighted to see Bijou again. Quinton and Susan noticed this and participated in the hug, while Axel and Elle observed, the dog barking joyously at seeing his owner after being gone for months.
